Nine News Local

I hope that Paul Taylor is redeployed as QTQ’s answer to TCN’s Mike Dalton as he has IMO been quite a good fit for those stories recently. Previously we had Alex Heinke, who was good, but I think Paul was a lot better.

Natassia Apolloni would at least be familiar to Illawarra viewers having held senior roles at WIN News before moving to Nine shortly after the affiliation swap.

Doesn’t look like it. As mentioned before no mention of Nine in her social media bios, one person saying they were “thinking of her.”

I know she was filing some stories a little while back. Haven’t seen her do it lately. How long ago was that though?

All the Nine News Regional Facebook pages aren’t ran well.

Some pages decided to not post for months on end last year.

Twitter seems a bit better. Regular re-tweets from reporters and the the national accounts (with press conferences).

And Instagram is abandoned for the few accounts that were made, except for Darwin - which regularly puts out behind-the-scenes content.
